Sweet Peas 
The proper time to spade the garden for Sweet Peas is in the 
Fall, as the longer the soil remains in the rough state the better. 
Give a liberal dressing of well-rotted stable manure, ground 
bone and a dusting of lime. Spade to a depth of 6 or 8 inches 
and allow soil to remain in the rough without chopping down. 
When sowing seed, see that the soil is firmly trodden down, as 
Sweet Peas require not only a deep soil but a firm one. Seed 
should always be sown early in Spring 1 inch deep, and when 
plants are well up thin to 2 to 4 inches apart. Pinch out tops 
to start branching. Support should be given early before 
plants get twisted. When hot, dry weather begins, see that the 
plants are well mulched and well watered. Look out for green 
aphis and keep clean by spraying with solution of tobacco 
extract Care must be taken to keep flowers picked, as the 
forming of seed pods will stop blooming. 
GIANT RUFFLED SPENCER 
The Newest and Most Beautiful of All 
The main characteristic of this new type is the duplexness 
and extra frilliness of the flowers. This imparts a double 
appearance to the large, wavy flowers, the frilliness extending
